Background and question Similar to other autoinflammatory diseases, diagnosis of FMF is often missed and markedly delayed, particularly when its prevalance is very low in a community. It’s reported that diagnosis of FMF might be delayed more than 20 years. Although Turkey is one of the countries with a high prevalence of FMF, the diagnosis of the disease is markedly delayed in clinical practice. In this study, we aimed to investigate the delay of diagnosis in patients followed up due to, or new diagnosed with FMF in the newly established Rheumatology Unit of a big tertiary medical center located in Corum region. Corum province is one of the region where FMF is very common in Turkey.

How long is the diagnosis of Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) delayed in a region where FMF is common in Turkey?
